Speaking at an informal press conference outside Queen’s Park, the six vowed Ontario parents will keep fighting an odious curriculum they say will incalculably harm their children by exposing them to explicit sexual information far too early.

Wynne rejected their plea to withdraw or even pause the plan even after the mounting objection to it.

One parent noted that "if they want to give our kids a pizza slice, we have to sign a paper" -- yet somehow, parental consent isn't considered as important when the topic is sex education.

(This is especially ironic, since "consent" is one of the hot topics covered in the controversial curriculum itself.)

The parent was Jotvinder Sodi, who, as a school council chair, must understand that if he declines to participate in his school's pizza lunch, the school doesn't cancel the pizza lunch.Note to Emily Pratt: The parents in your story object to the teaching of consent to children -- that's irony. Fortunately, however, they may opt out of the sexual health components of the curriculum -- that's not irony.
